Sasuke's face darkened.
He and Akira barely had any chakra left. Originally, Urashiki's chakra reserves were also running low, and everyone seed to be in the sa situation. But with a single pill, Urashiki restored most of his chakra. How were they supposed to fight now?
Anyone who had ever played a ga knew how frustrating it was when you ran out of mana. Originally, it had been an evenly matched battle, with all sides low on energy. But suddenly, Urashiki popped a mana potion and was back in the ga. Now he could continue using techniques while Sasuke and Akira were out of options. How could they possibly keep up?
"Isn't this cheating? No one else is using a mana potion, but you are?" Akira glanced at Urashiki, quietly muttering to himself. But then again, if Urashiki was going to use cheats, Akira had his own "bug" he could exploit.
An idea sparked in Akira's mind, and a plan quickly ford. He moved over to Sasuke and whispered his strategy.
"You... you're serious...?" Sasuke looked at Akira in disbelief.
"Trust , I have no intention of dying here," Akira replied firmly. "There's no ti to explain in detail."
"Alright, let's do it your way," Sasuke nodded. Even though he didn't fully understand Akira's reasoning, they were in this together, and he chose to trust him.
With their plan set, Akira and Sasuke gathered the last remnants of their chakra, preparing for one final push.
The two rushed toward Urashiki once again. Seeing their approach, Urashiki smirked, unhurriedly flicking his fishing rod. The outco of the battle seed inevitable to him. As long as he dragged out the fight, both Sasuke and Akira would eventually run out of chakra, leaving them at his rcy. There was no need for him to exert himself any further; he just needed to stall them.
On the other side, Akira and Sasuke seed desperate, trying to end the battle while they still had so chakra left. Their frantic approach made Urashiki laugh inwardly. The more anxious they beca, the more composed he felt.
After a dozen or so more exchanges, Urashiki flicked his rod once more, and a hook shot toward Akira. This ti, Akira made a critical misstep, leaving an opening. The hook struck him.
The hook, though appearing as a solid red light, wasn't entirely physical. It latched onto Akira without causing any bodily harm. As Urashiki reeled it back, a mass of chakra was pulled from Akira's body.
Urashiki raised an eyebrow at the unexpected success. He hadn't thought Akira would fail to dodge-it seed the exhaustion was finally catching up to him.
With his Byakugan-Rinnegan, Urashiki confird that Akira's chakra had been completely drained, leaving him powerless. There was no need to worry; this wasn't so kind of trick. "Got you!" Urashiki thought.
Seeing Akira's chakra being drained, Sasuke lunged toward Urashiki, their blades clashing fiercely.
Akira, anwhile, lay on the ground, unable to even stand. With his chakra drained, he was left completely exhausted-unable to move, let alone fight.
Seeing Akira on the ground, Urashiki felt at ease. If he could fend off the two of them together, there was no question of victory now that only Sasuke remained.
As Sasuke's Kusanagi Sword, crackling with Lightning Release, struck repeatedly against Urashiki's rod, he noticed his own chakra rapidly depleting. After several more attacks, Sasuke purposefully let his guard down, allowing Urashiki to counter.
Just as Urashiki's rod ca crashing down toward him, Sasuke's left eye glead with Rinnegan power-Anotejikara.
Instantly, Sasuke and Akira switched places.
"How evil! He even sacrifices his own comrade!" Urashiki sneered inwardly. He wouldn't stoop to such tactics himself, but that didn't an he'd hold back. The rod continued its descent, aid at the now-defenseless Akira.
But just as the rod was about to strike, Akira's hand shot up and caught it.
"Impossible!" Urashiki's eyes widened in shock.
Through his Byakugan-Rinnegan, he saw Akira's body now brimming with chakra-fully replenished. But how? His chakra had been completely drained just monts ago. How had he suddenly restored it?
"How did he do it?!" Sasuke, too, stared at Akira, disbelief etched across his face.
It all made sense now-Akira's plan to let Urashiki drain his chakra, the chance to face Urashiki directly. Akira had a way to instantly recover his chakra.
In the blink of an eye, Akira went from being completely exhausted to fully charged, an unbelievable feat. Even after everything he had seen, Sasuke couldn't help but be stunned.
If Sasuke was shocked, Urashiki was even more at a loss. Akira's physical strength was formidable, and now his chakra was suddenly fully restored. And to top it off, Akira had caught his rod bare-handed?
Taking a deep breath, Akira not only fully restored his chakra but also imdiately activated Sage Mode.
"You can cheat by popping a chakra pill, and I can exploit bugs," Akira declared a wry smile on his lips. "And my way of restoring chakra is much faster."
As he spoke, lightning began to converge in Akira's free hand-
Sage Art: Lightning Release, Lightning Cutter!
The strongest single-target attack technique surged from Akira's hand, and this ti, there was no distance between them. He held onto Urashiki, making it impossible for him to defend himself with his red light barrier.
Boom!
Akira unleashed his attack at point-blank range, the terrifying surge of energy completely enveloping Urashiki. With victory on the line, Akira didn't hold back. Chakra flowed out of him like an unending torrent.
Monts later, Akira finally let go.
Urashiki's body was charred, his once-pale skin now burnt black, his injuries severe.
Akira raised his Kusanagi Sword, pointing it at Urashiki's weakened form. However, before he could strike, Urashiki's blue Rinnegan shone with a peculiar glow, and suddenly, it seed as though ti itself had paused.
In that brief mont of stillness, Urashiki's Rinnegan shifted from blue to red. He activated the power of Yomotsu Hirasaka, and with his heavily wounded body, he slipped into an interdinsional portal and vanished.
"What was that? A power over ti?" Akira pondered, feeling as though everything had montarily frozen. Given Urashiki's ability to transport Sasuke and Boruto through ti and space, perhaps a temporal technique wasn't out of the question.
He wanted to chase Urashiki, but with his escape into Yomotsu Hirasaka's space, there was no
way to follow.
Akira sighed, deactivating Sage Mode.
"I never imagined your power would be this strong," Sasuke remarked, struggling to stand. "With your abilities, there's no reason to fear the Akatsuki. Even if they all attacked at once,
they wouldn't be a match for you."
Akira smiled faintly, not disagreeing.
Indeed, if he truly possessed the Six Tomoe Rinnegan permanently, taking on the entire Akatsuki alone wouldn't be an issue. But this Rinnegan was rely a temporary "experience card," not a permanent part of his strength...
POWER STONE!!!
